Overview

3 Day Gorilla Tracking to Bwindi Impenetrable National Park from Kigali, Rwanda is designed for travelers who wish to spend less time on the road, while also saving on the cost of the gorilla
permit. This is because the Kigali to Bwindi journey takes a shorter time (4 to 5hrs) as compared to the 8 to 9hrs that would be spent if one used the Entebbe to Bwindi route. Furthermore, the Uganda Gorilla trekking permit is also cheaper as it costs only $800 as compared to $1500 of the Rwanda gorilla trekking. This kind of arrangement makes the safari more interesting but less costly, making it feasible as one can fly in to Rwanda and trek gorillas from Bwindi. The safari is also ideal for those staying
in Rwanda but are interested in trekking gorillas from Bwindi as well as those who might want to compare Rwanda's gorilla trekking experience in Volcanoes National Park to the one in Uganda's Bwindi Impenetrable National Park
